Leeds United have strengthened their midfield by acquiring Anton Stach from Hoffenheim. The 26-year-old midfielder has signed a four-year deal, reportedly costing the club around £17 million (€19.5 million). During his two seasons at Hoffenheim, Stach played in 71 matches across all competitions, scoring four goals and providing six assists. His consistent performance helped Hoffenheim avoid relegation, finishing 15th in the Bundesliga.

Stach expressed his enthusiasm about joining Leeds United, stating, "I am excited to join such a good team, such a good Premier League team, and I am looking forward to the next season." He described himself as an aggressive player who excels in duels and anticipates opponents' passes well. Stach believes his playing style will suit the Premier League.
Leeds United have been active in the transfer market as they gear up for their Premier League return. Stach is their sixth signing this window. He joins Sebastiaan Bornauw, Jaka Bijol, Gabriel Gudmundsson, Lukas Nmecha and Sean Longstaff at Elland Road. The club aims to strengthen its squad for the upcoming challenges.
Stach has set clear objectives for his time at Leeds. "The biggest target is to stay in the league and personally just develop," he said. He aims to adapt quickly to the league's pace and gain valuable experiences. His focus is on contributing effectively to ensure Leeds maintains its Premier League status.
Stach's arrival adds depth to Leeds' midfield options as they prepare for a competitive season ahead. With his experience in Germany's top flight and his skill set, he is expected to be a valuable asset for the team. The club hopes these new signings will help them achieve their goals this season.
